Don't know why these motion comics are catching on so much. They're cool and all, but I would never pay to see one. I'd rather watch a cartoon based on the same story.

BMAN @ Pity though, most cartoons will never even be close to the source material!

I did'nt like these Motion comics when i first saw them lol, but their growing on me!

that's cool

I like the 2nd Nova one where the Worldmind's voice isn't ridiculously deep.

@ LEEE777: I've seen a few. I do like them. It's just that I wouldn't pay to see them. Mainly because I would never watch it more than once.

I just don't get it. Why can't they make cartoons and movies that follow the story? It's already written right there in front of them, yet they change it. Why! It worked for Watchmen. Why can't it work for everything else?

@BmanHall: So you pay for comic books because you read them more than once?
SoratheKey - 10/26/2009, 2:27 PM
SoratheKey-- Yeah, I read mine more than once. Otherwise I would just throw them away.

@Betty: Yeah.... well my point was that a motion comic would be very similar to a comic book if your'e going to just read it once than throw it away.... but you still pay for it!!!

Same with a motion comic watch it and savi ti if you're going to watch it more than once... otherwise just delete it... and it is only .99 cents!

I feel this type of animation is too clunky and awkward. It doesn't feel like it's helping the story if anything it distracts from it.

And that scene with Wolverine on Hulk's back spinning, I think one revolution would have been enough, I thought I was going to puke.
